Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

TOP1 is a type IB DNA topoisomerase that relieves torsional stress generated during replication and transcription by clamping around duplex DNA, cleaving one strand via the active-site nucleophile Tyr-723 to form a covalent 3′-phosphotyrosyl intermediate (TOP1 cleavage complex, TOP1cc), allowing controlled rotation of the downstream duplex, and religating the nick (PMID:9488644, PMID:9488652). TOP1 acts cooperatively with TOP2 within ~600 bp of replication forks and at replication initiation; loss of both topoisomerases arrests fork progression and activates the DNA damage checkpoint (PMID:17671091, PMID:41791707). Camptothecin-class drugs trap the TOP1cc by intercalating at the cleavage site, and trapped complexes are resolved by redundant pathways including TDP1-mediated phosphotyrosyl hydrolysis, ERCC1-XPF/NER endonuclease cleavage, and MUS81-dependent processing after TOP1 proteolysis, with PARP1-dependent PARylation and SUMO/ubiquitin modifications further regulating TOP1cc dynamics and repair (PMID:12426403, PMID:12368472, PMID:26025908, PMID:37194054, PMID:27466387). Abortive TOP1 activity at genome-embedded ribonucleotides generates a characteristic 2–5 bp deletion mutational signature (ID4) contributing to both somatic and germline mutagenesis, and transcription-coupled TOP1cc formation at hypertranscribed loci cooperates with R-loops to produce DSBs and chromosomal translocations (PMID:35140396, PMID:37945566, PMID:38375218).

1988 Human TOP1 was cloned from a cDNA library; the catalytically active domain resides in the C-terminal 67.7-kDa fragment (carboxyl terminus, including active-site Tyr-723), which relaxes supercoiled DNA in vitro and shares 42% identity with yeast Top1. cDNA cloning from λgt11 expression library, in vitro DNA relaxation assay, proteolysis mapping, immunoprecipitation with anti-topoisomerase I serum Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America High 2833744
1985 Yeast TOP1 (encoding DNA topoisomerase I) was cloned and shown to be a single-copy gene whose deletion is viable in haploid cells; however, combined deletion of TOP1 and the temperature-sensitive TOP2 is lethal even when mitotic arrest prevents TOP2-mediated death, demonstrating that TOP1 serves an auxiliary but distinct role in chromosome metabolism complementary to TOP2.

1998 Crystal structures of human topoisomerase I (core + C-terminal domains) in covalent and noncovalent complexes with 22-bp DNA at 2.1 Å and 2.5 Å resolution reveal that the enzyme clamps around essentially B-form DNA; the active-site nucleophile Tyr-723 is in the C-terminal domain; the core domain shares structural similarity with phage integrases; a binding site for camptothecin at the enzyme-DNA interface was proposed.

2002 X-ray crystal structure of human topoisomerase I covalently joined to DNA and bound to the anticancer drug Topotecan (camptothecin analog) showed that Topotecan intercalates between the −1 and +1 base pairs at the cleavage site, displacing the downstream DNA and preventing religation, thereby acting as an uncompetitive inhibitor of the enzyme-substrate complex; direct drug contacts with TOP1 residues R364, D533, and N722 were identified.

2002 In yeast, the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase Tdp1 and the structure-specific endonuclease Rad1-Rad10 function as two primary and redundant pathways for repairing TOP1 replicative damage (Top1 cleavage complexes at replication forks); both pathways require RAD52, RAD51, and RAD50 for subsequent recombination-dependent repair; double tdp1 rad1 mutants show TOP1-dependent growth delay and extreme camptothecin sensitivity.

2007 In S. cerevisiae, Top1 and Top2 act within a ~600 bp region spanning moving replication forks to relieve torsional stress; TOP1 ablation alone does not impair fork progression or activate the Rad53 checkpoint kinase, but top1 top2 double mutants exhibit fork block, processing, and phosphorylation of Rad53 and γH2A in S-phase, demonstrating a coordinated/redundant role of both topoisomerases at replication forks.

2016 PARylation of Top1 by PARP1 regulates Top1 subnuclear dynamics: PARP inhibitors (Veliparib/ABT-888) delocalize Top1 from the nucleolus to the nucleoplasm independently of Top1-PARP1 direct interaction; PARP inhibition markedly increases the CPT-induced immobile (Top1cc) fraction of Top1 across the nuclear genome; Top1 residues Trp205 and Asn722 are critical for subnuclear dynamics; the N722S mutant is restricted to the nucleolus in CPT and is deficient in CPT-induced PARylation and Top1cc formation.

2016 Top1 performs ribonucleotide-dependent deletions via a sequential double-cleavage mechanism: Top1 incises at a ribonucleotide, forming a Top1cc, and a second Top1 cleavage event creates a gap; complementarity within a tandem repeat then promotes realignment and Top1-mediated ligation to generate a deletion; parallel in vitro and in vivo analyses confirmed that deletion size is determined by the distance between two Top1 cleavage sites, and downstream complementarity promotes deletion more effectively than upstream complementarity.

2026 In vertebrate (chicken DT40) cells, TOP1 and TOP2 have complementary roles in DNA replication: depletion of TOP1 alone or inhibition of TOP2 alone does not impair replication fork progression, but combining TOP1 depletion with TOP2 inhibition nearly abolishes DNA replication, causing S-phase arrest and apoptosis; additionally, TOP2 poison etoposide (but not the TOP2 inhibitor ICRF193) in TOP1-depleted cells causes G1/early S-phase arrest, implicating TOP1 in replication initiation.

1999 The t(11;20)(p15;q11) chromosomal translocation in therapy-related MDS produces a chimeric NUP98-TOP1 mRNA in which the N-terminal FXFG repeat region of NUP98 is fused in-frame to the body of TOP1 (from exon 8 onwards), identifying TOP1 as a recurrent translocation target in haematological malignancies; the NUP98 FXFG domain is separated from its RNA-binding domain by the breakpoint.

2025 TOPORS, a SUMO E3 ligase/ubiquitin ligase, promotes SUMO1 modification (SUMOylation) of TOP1 in macrophages; knockdown of TOPORS reduces SUMO1-TOP1 levels and increases TOP1 protein and γH2AX (DNA damage marker) in ovalbumin-stimulated macrophages, indicating that TOPORS-mediated SUMO1 modification of TOP1 facilitates DNA damage repair in oxidative stress conditions.
